Pre-op Is Boring And Uninteresting

KhadijahRose

380 views

In all my research of banding I have rarely ever watched a pre-op video unless I'd already seen the results of what the person had accomplished before they were banded. I do wonder if they're hopes and fears are like that of my own, or how they got to where they were in weight and how had they struggled with it.

 

Sigh...

 

The stories are so unbelievably the same and so are the emotions. There's sadness, depression, pain, sickness, hmmm, it kind of sounds like I'm describing the side effects of a prescription drug001_huh.gif HEY with all the med's we fat folks have to take due to obesity related issues I wouldn't be surprised if these emotions actually ARE side effects!

 

Anywhoo,

I'm writing this because I hope to be able to look back in a years time and remember pre-op me. Remember my state of mind and body and think 'Wow, look at how you've changed..'happy.png Aaagh to daydream...

Oh, I soooo hear ya! I am two weeks pre-op and trying to get everything ready for the big day. A little depression setting in, but I think it is because the days seem to be longer while I'm in the waiting. Not to mention I'll be on the liquid diet all through Christmas. Trying to wrap my mind around the idea that in the long-term scheme of things--one Christmas dinner missed is not a huge deal.......... It will all be worth it in the end........
